Divorce & Narcissistic Abuse : Rising Strong
As a Certified Brené Brown Daring Way facilitator I am offering a new group using Brené Brown's new book, RISING STRONG. This group is a chance to put what you have read into practice. Rising Strong, is based on the simple physics of vulnerability: If we are brave enough, often enough, we will fall. This is a curriculum about what it takes to get back up and how owning our stories of struggle gives us the power to write a daring new ending. Struggle can be our greatest call to courage and the clearest path to a wholehearted life.
